Multicore Cables Description & Uses

Multicore cable is a type of cable that has multiple cores and made of copper wire. It relates to a cable that has more no of cores than commonly experience. For example, a four core mains cable is never referred to as multicore, but a cable comprising four coaxial cables in a single case would be considered multicorers.

A multicore cable has also feature of heavy cable jacketing in order to protect the cable from damage and negate the effects of electromagnetic interference. 

Uses of Multicore Cables
As we know multicore cable are extremely versatile and are used for all kinds of applications like in electronic equipments, aircrafts, medical equipments and in industrial purpose as these cables are a good conductor of electricity and used to carry heavy tons of electricity in it.
It can also split into different parts from the end and form from different connectors, so it is also referred as snake cables.In short, we can use multicore cables anywhere and it gets benefit from it by  combining data, power, coaxial and AV cores into a single cable.
We can also use it where we had limited space or we want to perform different functions for convinience .

Things to consider before buying multicore cable .
As we know now a days electronic equipment needs multicore cable especiallly if the equipment is serviced multifunctional at the same time. The quality of the cable decides the performance of equipment so it is advisable to give more attention towards deciding the cable we need .

Number of cores: 

Multicore cable basically used to where we have to execute different functions , so we have to decide in which equipment we are using it and clearly defines the functions of it and then we can customize the number of cores.

Insulation:
Multicore cables are used as instrumentation cables, they are tasked is to carry AV signals or for data transmission. This requires minimal disturbance from outside factors. So the multicore cable also requires extremely effective insulation. Without this, we will have signal disruption and extremely poor performance.

Type of Multicore Cable:
They are different of multicore cable exist and we can differentiate it on the basis of sheath type, the thickness of the core and many other factors. 

Terrain:
 It is used for diverse terrains i.e from underwater to rough surfaces as it has property of corrosion resistance and ability to bear wear and tear. 

Construction:
A multicore cable can be  constructed in different ways that is, it can be flat, twisted, quad or triple. The way we do its construction has direct impact on its performance. We do the construction on the basis of functioning of electronic equipment as each cable has its own pros and cons.
In you can choose insulating material on the basis of the performance of cable  and which insulating material has diversity in nature.

Customization:
This is an  important criteria for selecting multicore cable.As these cables have a  unique functioning and designed to support the electrical implements in the  project we had so the customization is the important part. By doing customization we are able to get the perfect match for our requirement. 

Flexibility: 

Multicore cables are usually  very flexible by their  nature. 

Colour coding:
Most of the multicore cable manufacturers will  include color coding automatically because of two reasons.
First, these cables are carrying the high voltage and the color coding acts as a warning.
Second, these color coding is essential in distinguishing the different functions of the split heads in the cable. To use it before, check the right colors are used at the design stage.
